Chapter 16: Killing Pigs and Bloodletting
Chen Xihe saw that his mouth was dirty, so he directly pulled out the hidden saber from his waist and pressed it against his neck.
"How? If you scold again, I'll make the knife an inch deeper, why don't you try it? ”
Her tone was fierce, very fierce, which made Hu Yan tremble a little.
"You, you, my father is Lizheng."
The appearance of being strong on the outside and doing it in the middle made Chen Xihe laugh.
"How? Is this place you have chosen for a place where anyone will come? I'm telling you, either you apologize outright, or I'll stick a knife in your throat, choose one. ”
Chen Xihe clamped him with one hand and pressed the other hand against his neck.
With the cool breeze in the early morning, Chen Xihe said: "I have killed pigs since I was a child, and it is easy to kill you." ”
Zhu Butcher saw that this little girl controlled Hu Yan, and he was a little incredulous, this girl's strength was really hidden.
"Do you want me to admit it? No way, just you're a woman, *******"
Hu Yan scolded, "You give it to me, don't let this woman catch me." Can you still be held hostage by this woman?! ”
Several people around were ready to get started, and Zhu Butcher made a move at this time, blocking these people one after another.
Zhu Butcher was angry, how could he still be blocked in front of him by a girl, and when he returned home, the lady in the family would definitely look down on him.
Angry, he shouted, "You lackeys, you still want to make trouble!" Yes!!!!! ”
Chen Xi and Zhu Butcher also got up and blocked the people around him.
Seeing this, several people also grabbed a part of Zhu Butcher's body and restrained him.
Chen Xihe's face did not change, and he directly put the knife on Hu Yan's skin. Blood beads also dripped to the ground, and Hu Yan was startled.
This woman really dared to do it.
Hu Yan found out that this woman was really ruthless, and hurriedly begged for mercy, "Don't kill me, I'm the son of the Lizheng family." It's me who is wrong, it's that I don't know how to lift, it's me who is cheap. “
Seeing that Chen Xihe hadn't let go yet, several people were about to break free from Zhu Butcher, so he changed his tone again.
"You poisonous woman, come here, pull her away, he wants to really do it."
After the cry for mercy came out, several people saw this side and let go of the Zhu butcher who was restrained.
They all came forward to attack Chen Xihe.
Chen Xihe sneered, pulled out a long rope, wrapped Hu Yan around, and with a strong hand, he threw him up and smashed it on several people.
Zhu Butcher stepped forward and looked at these people, and saw that Chen Xi and the strength were as big as oxen, and his eyes were also wide.
"Born with divine power!"
Several people fell to the ground, and when they saw that the situation was not right, they fled one after another.
"Let's go! Come on! “
Hu Yan also covered the wound on his neck and looked at Chen Xihe with jealousy.
"You poisonous woman, I won't let you go."
Chen Xihe saw him speak wildly, wrapped the long rope in his hand, and made a gesture to continue beating him.
He hurried away.
Seeing this, Zhu Tuhu's eyes changed when he looked at Chen Xihe.
"Ah He girl, it won't be you the fairy with natural power on the street yesterday."
As soon as Chen Xihe heard this, what fairy? What divine power?
Zhu Butcher thought of something, it was estimated that the girl's family was thin-skinned, and he was embarrassed to say it, so he didn't say anything more.
The more the people who ran away, the more they realized that something was wrong. "No, I've got to pull the pig back, or my dad will have to beat me to death."
Seeing this, the younger brother on the side said to Hu Yan: "Boss, call you over, that terrible woman is like a Rakshasa woman, she can hack us to death with a knife." ”
Hu Yan thought of this, his face changed slightly, and he thought about it carefully, "You can't starve to death anyway." When you see that woman, stand in the way of me, you know? ”
He can't go back directly, and it's a big deal to affect the family's money. Otherwise, if you have such a big amount of oil and water, you have to let others take it.
If you let your father know that it was a woman who didn't pull the pig back, she would not only let herself go out, but also break his leg.
"I have a way! Let her obediently listen to me. ”
When the younger brothers around heard this, they glanced at each other.
followed Hu Yan and continued to Beiying Village.
Along the way, Chen Xihe listened to Zhu Butcher's explanation, which completely treated her as a companion.
After all, Chen Xihe's strength is already so strong now, and now there are so many butchers in Anyuan Town, and she has also become an enemy with the Li Zheng family on the main street, Zhu Butcher thought to himself, as long as he can help him talk nonsense about the enemy Li Zheng's family, they are all friends.
Ah Rong's family is in turmoil.
"To the front, Beiying Village."
Chen Xihe looked at the signboard of Beiying Village, it had been a long time.
When he got to the front and rented a carriage, Chen Xihe followed Zhu Butcher, learning every step of the way.
When I arrived at the farm in Beiying Village, I found that many pigs had been tied together.
Some people have already started to kill, but most of them still pulled the pigs and went back directly, and there was no killing.
"Uncle Zhu, let's pull it back, or kill it here?"
Zhu Butcher explained: "To kill pigs here, you only need to pay a few pennies, and hot water will be provided, and it will not be troublesome to go back after killing." “
After Chen Xihe heard this, he nodded.
Seeing that there is also a place to kill pigs, there are shelves for boiling water everywhere, hanging pigs, plucking feathers, knives, and dividing meat are all handled by themselves.
Chen Xihe also stepped forward and followed Zhu Butcher to the next step of the pig selection process.
The pigs here are all black pigs, and it stands to reason that they should be in good health, but she looked around, but found that they were all fat.
When choosing pork, Chen Xihe asked the young man selling pigs next to him.
"Are all your pigs of this kind? Don't have a black pig with a strong physique? ”
When the young man on the side saw a young woman coming, he also stood up and took the initiative to answer her questions.
He pointed to the other side.
"Look, the mountains over there."
Chen Xihe looked at that side, it was a high mountain, an ordinary mountain?
The black-faced young man didn't think so, he pouted, "If we want to raise pigs, we have to go into the mountains, and now, there are jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains, everything, and if you go in, you will not give them food." ”
When Chen Xihe heard this, he said again: "Didn't you have it before? ”
The young man waved his hand, "There was a military camp stationed before, but now, there are only local people in our village, everyone wants to make a living, earn enough money and go out, and when they go to the big city, they can live even if they do some ordinary business." ”
Chen Xi and Ran, it turned out that this was the case, since this is the case, the possibility of the implementation of his pig breeding plan is high.
The young man on the side looked Chen Xihe up and down, and asked suspiciously, "You won't also come to buy pigs, little girl." ”
Chen Xihe looked at him, "Of course, I took a look around, your pigs look good, how can you sell them?" ”
When the young man saw that this was a businessman, he also straightened up.
Hold your head high and pat your chest to introduce yourself. "Pig raising in Xiabeiying Village, known as Lin An, a pig expert, you can look at it casually, all the pigs I raise, the meat quality has nothing to say, you don't look at the group of people, they are all directly pulled by my pigs. Weighing, 100 catties and 200 dollars. ”
After listening to him, Chen Xihe walked into the herd of pigs, looked at this group of pigs, and looked at their eyes and limbs closely.
The skillful movements made Lin An on the side a little surprised, this is a familiar hand.
"That's it, weigh it."
Seeing this, Lin An couldn't help but say, "Don't you call your family to kill pigs?" I'm not responsible for killing. ”
Chen Xihe waved his hand, "Take it." I'll handle it alone. ”
"Okay!"
After that, Lin An directly dragged the pigs up and weighed them, carefully observing the number.
Chen Xihe roughly guessed the weight, estimated at about 170 catties, although they mainly raise fat here, but the pigs are slaughtered quickly, and they can't raise 200 catties before selling.
Lin An on the side calculated and said a number.
"Round it up, 340 dollars."
Chen Xihe nodded and took out the prepared copper coin from his arms.
Counted and gave a few.
"Even the tip for killing the pig was given, plus ten cents, right?"
Lin An also suspected that this woman was not a local, and she had never seen it before.
After taking the money, Chen Xihe said, "Do you sell piglets here?" ”
When Lin An heard this, his eyes lit up, "Sell, of course sell." It's going to take a while, though. “
Chen Xihe calculated the time, "Yes, my name is Ah He, in the Ah Rong butcher shop in Anyuan Town, when the time comes, if you want to sell piglets, you can come to me." I've got a way here. “
Seeing this, Lin An turned out to be Ah Rong's butcher's shop, and the people next to him were also whispering.
"Anzi, the person who had an accident yesterday, isn't it?"
When Chen Xihe heard this, he said while tying up the pigs. "That's the family, I'm a relative of his family, and I'm here to help."
Before others could react, Chen Xihe directly tied up the pig, put it on his shoulder, and put it on the board on the side.
"Boil water."
Everyone on the scene was stunned, a strong man himself couldn't lift the weight of a pig, this ordinary girl, could be.
The strange scene attracted many onlookers.
Including a bunch of nonsense people coming in from behind.
He was already stunned when Chen Xihe picked up the pig, and when he saw everyone surrounding, he also stayed in the corner and watched how this strange woman killed the live pig.
Lin An saw that there were many people around, and he couldn't pull it down, so he hurriedly stepped forward and added firewood to the pot in front.
But he saw that there were people coming here, and there was a group of people in front of his stall, including butchers who had been killing pigs and sheep for many years, and people who had come here to be in charge of purchasing.
Seeing that Chen Xihe was not by his side, Zhu Butcher also placed the pig and went to find Chen Xihe first.
Seeing a group of people watching, could it be something strange?
When he got closer, he saw Chen Xihe about to kill a pig in front of the shelf.
I saw Chen Xi and the pig-killing knife in the basket, cross-running.
The pig on the side seemed to foresee life and death at this time, and hurriedly wanted to struggle.
It's just that Chen Xihe has already tied his limbs, and even his body has been tied with a long rope.
The pig on the board can only struggle.
Seeing that Chen Xihe hadn't started yet, everyone came to join in the fun and said. "Little girl, this kind of thing is not done by you as a girl, you have to let us do it."
"Yes, next, but if you want to see blood, don't be scared."
The crowd laughed.
Chen Xihe ignored them, she was going to do something that she had to do every time she killed a pig.
I saw Chen Xihe set up a bench in the east.
She took out the incense burner prepared in advance from the basket, placed it on the bench, lit three pillars of incense, and respectfully saluted to the east.
"Grandpa, this is the first time I have used a knife in this life, and please bless me, everything goes well, and there will be no disappearance."
When the old butchers around her saw her like this, they seemed to think of something.
"It turns out that there is a disciple with a heritage, and the etiquette cannot be forgotten."
When the young butchers on the side heard this, they were also skeptical, and some of them were only apprentices here, and they had never seen the master burn incense on the spot.
The old butcher said with emotion: "Every time I kill, I want to tell God." You still have to learn, take a look at it today. ”
The others looked at Ye Jinxiu suspiciously, seeing that she dared to do it?
After Chen Xihe finished burning incense, he glanced at the cauldron, and the water had already been boiled.
She pulled out a wide knife and stunned the struggling pig on the board, then placed it upside down on the shelf.
Chen Xihe put the basin on one side, directly found the direction of the bloodletting knife, stabbed it under the pig's neck, and pulled out the knife after pressing and rotating it 90 degrees.
Blood gushed out for a while, and Chen Xihe left it in the basin prepared in advance.
The pig on the board quickly ran out of breath.
